[QUOTE="gixxerjasen, post: 954417, member: 20220"] You ain't kidding about wrapping your mind around it. I grew up in New England before moving to Florida as a kid and then ultimately to Texas (Got here as fast as I could! :D ) I took the wife for a trip to New England to view the leaves. Planned out my first day...Arrive in Boston, grab a rental car, drive through mass, NH and into Vermont. Visit the town and see the house where I grew up, and then continue through Vermont to our hotel. Plotted it out and that was 3 hours of driving. I can't even make Houston from Dallas in the amount of time it took to navigate three states! It'll bend your mind for certain until you get used to it. My sister used to live in Alexandria and I've visited her a few times. One thing for certain, those east coast cities are all very old and a lot of them have little thought to planning where the roads go as they have been there for an eternity. This means when you try to navigate, throw any logic you have about road navigation out the window and maybe you'll find where you are going! :D [/QUOTE]
